these birds are very anonymous during the year but in the breeding season
they completely change the plumage and become very beautiful.

Unlike the orange-crowned warbler that can easily hide its orange crown, the golden-crowned kinglet's golden crown is always on full display. This golden-crowned kinglet is catching gnats and no-see-ums in the wooded grove that acts like a little oasis for migrating songbirds in the open prairie habitat around here. After spending the summer in Canada's vast boreal forest, these hardy golden-crowned kinglets sometimes winter right here in Winneshiek County since they can survive temperatures to -40 F even though they are barely bigger than a hummingbird.

Thank you for viewing
The largest/heaviest flying bird native to Africa, the Kori Bustard (Ardeotis kori) is a ground dwelling bird and an opportunistic omnivore. The males can get up to 42 lbs and stand nearly 5 feet tall; they may be twice as heavy as the females.
This is a male in breeding display striding about with his neck puffed out, his tail fanned and wings planed and pointed downward. If he was looking to court a lady, we saw none in the vicinity - perhaps he was just practicing his routine.

This time of year is when we have the opportunity of seeing the great white egrets displaying in the hopes of attrating a mate. They are so elegant and the long feathers that they grow specifically for this time of year are truly magnificent.
Unlike many other lazy males, it is the male Great Blue Heron that builds and takes primary responsibility for maintaining the nest. Once built, to attract a mate he begins a display where he squats down, raises up calling lifting his beak to the sky. It’s sad to see a male go through a season, building a nest, displaying over and over again to no avail. Maybe it’s his first or possibly last season or there is a shortage of females. Unknown. Maybe he just built a lousy nest and no female would approve. Anyway, one he has successfully attracted a mate he will continue to bring nesting material and pass the sticks to the female who will work to intertwine them with the existing sticks to further solidify the nest. Quite a show. This guy is shown at the apex of the display on, what looks like to me, a fine nest and I liked his display too. (OK, hold those comments wise guys).

"The Loveliest Castle in the World" is just along the road from where i live had their firework display this evening I was lucky to have some press passes to go and watch and take pictures
A juvenile Green Heron displays perfect form as it flies past in front of the photographer. I especially like how the bird's two legs are almost perfectly aligned in this moment, making only the near leg visible. Just a glimpse of the hidden leg's backside claw is visible on the zoomed-in view.

This display is part of the male great egret's courtship behavior. A nearby female watched him perform his ritual. It worked:)

Lorna, The Bear Den, and I headed out to Stephannson House Provincial Historic Site on Sunday for their quilt show. Lovely day, and so many beautiful quilts on display!

One of our most beautiful damselflies I think. I managed to catch this one in a striking pose as he was displaying. There was a number of males around this one and one female. I’m not sure if this behaviour was to appeal to the female or a threat display aimed at the other males.
Perhaps it was both -
He certainly looked impressive anyway.
Thank you for having a look at my photos. Comments or faves are very welcome and much appreciated.
Upcycling shop in Wirksworth. Old tat repurposed, usually into a lamp...some of which is quite attractive and some...well, let’s be kind, some not so much.

The blue tone had felt cool in the summer night,
although it was 38℃ in the daytime.
Now, it's too hot in Japan.

I just happened upon this egret all by itself. I shot through an opening in trees to get the display.

Just back from the trip I'll start with some antlers, displayed in a staircase at the beautiful König Ludwig Hotel in Schwangau. During the next days you'll hopefully see some more images from churches, castles and mountains that crossed my lens :)
Thanks for visits and faves.
Cheers
